Alberta WAS the most favourable tax regime in North America, I believe. I was at a luncheon a few years ago where Ken King was using this argument as one of the reasons why high-income NHL players would want to play in Calgary. The 2016 changes in taxation and, potentially, more taxation will make that advantage disappear.
